African Pepper Soup (Chicken) By African Bites
African pepper soup is a delightfully, intensely flavored soup that is served throughout West Africa, especially in Nigeria, Cameroon, and other neighboring African countries.
The basic ingredients that you need in other to enjoy pepper soup are hot pepper, onions, garlic, ginger then the list goes on with ethnic spices that range from lemongrass to more universal spices like allspice, cumin, curry, fennel seeds. I kept this recipe simple, so anyone anywhere can try this soup. Use any protein of choice ( goat meat, chicken, fish, beef, ovals.)
